Climbing that greasy political ladder to become the prime minister is far from easy, but a passion for politics and a winning smile are not dependent on class or education.
John Major, the prime minister before Tony Blair, had a music hall performer as a dad, a state school education and was rejected when applying to be a bus conductor.
Blair’s earnings since leaving office have been significant, with conservative estimates placing them at around £20 million, proving that once you have reached the top, money is virtually thrown at you for speaking opportunities, book deals and more.
